An honorable member of the Coffee Shop Has Just Posted the Following:

France decided this week, after almost three years of deliberations, to switch to the so-called Swedish or Nordic model, which exists in Sweden, Norway, Iceland and Northern Ireland: Sex work is legal, but paying for it isn't. Johns will be fined 1,500 euros ($1,700) for the first offense and 3,700 euros for the second.

Germany, which effectively legalized prostitution in 2002, has a more nuanced approach. The legalization has spawned a huge industry: The government says there are about 200,000 sex workers in Germany, but unofficial estimates raise that number closer to 700,000. The proposal does away with the flat-fee brothels and "gang bang parties," as similar establishments are known. It also establishes fines for clients -- but not for buying sex as such; Germany will punish clients for having sex with a forced sex worker.
